Letra[]
Rachel:
You can't stop an avalanche
as it races down the hill
You can try to stop the seasons,
but you know you never will
And you can try to stop my dancing feet,
but I just cannot stand still
'Cause the world keeps spinnin'
round and round
And my heart's keeping time
to the speed of sound
I was lost 'til I heard the drums,
and I found my way
'Cause you can't stop the beat
Five, six, seven, eight!
Rachel y Finn:
Ever since this old world began
A woman found out if she shook it,
She could shake up a man
And so I'm gonna shake and shimmy it
the best that I can today
'Cause you can't stop
the motion of the ocean
or the sun in the sky
You can wonder if you wanna,
but I never ask why
If you try to hold me down,
I'm gonna spit in your eye and say
That you can't stop the beat!
Kurt:
You can't stop a river
as it rushes to the sea
Artie:
You can try to stop the hands of time,
but you know it just can't be
Kurt:
And if they try to stop us, Artie
Kurt y Artie:
I'll call the N-double-A-C-P
Kurt:
'Cause the world keeps spinning
'round and 'round (Artie: 'Round and 'round)
And my heart's keeping time
to the speed of sound (Artie: Speed of sound)
I was lost 'til I heard the drums
Kurt y Artie:
Then I found my way
Kurt:
'Cause you can't stop the beat
Kurt y Artie:
Ever since we first saw the light
A man and woman liked to shake it
On a Saturday night
So I'm gonna shake and shimmy it
With all of my might today
Kurt:
'Cause you can't stop
Kurt y Artie:
The motion of the ocean
or the rain from above
You can try to stop the paradise
we're dreamin' of
But you cannot stop the rhythm
Of two hearts in love to stay
'Cause you can't stop the beat!
Mercedes (Tina con New Directions):
You can't stop today (No!)
As it comes speeding down the track
(Child ya'!) Child, yesterday is history (He's gone!)
and it's never coming back (Don't look back!)
Cause tomorrow (tomorrow) is a brand new day (Brand new day)
and it don't know white from black (Yeah!)
Mercedes (con Finn y New Directions):
'Cause the world (keeps spinning 'round and 'round)
And my heart's (keeping time to the speed of sound)
I was lost ('til I heard the drums, then I found my way)
'Cause you can't stop the beat!
Tina con New Directions:
(Mercedes: Yeah!)
Ever since we first saw the sun (Mercedes: Saw the sun!)
A man and woman liked to shake it
When the day is done (Mercedes: Day is done!)
So I'm gonna shake and shimmy it
and have some fun today (Mercedes: Today!)
'Cause you can't stop
The motion of the ocean
or the rain from above
You can try to stop the paradise
we're dreamin' of (Mercedes: Dreaming of!)
But you cannot stop the rhythm
Of two hearts in love to stay (Mercedes: To stay!)
Rachel:
You can't stop the beat! (New Directions: You can't stop the beat)
Tina, Rachel, y Mercedes con New Directions:
You can't stop the beat! (New Directions: You can't stop the beat)
You can't stop the beat! (Mercedes: Yeah! yeah!)
